No, it does not happen a lot to runners, unless they've been kicked in the kidneys.Quote:

Good luck.
do a search on bruised kidneys here and topside.
yes
much worse than you
it sucks.
it happens to ultra-marathoners. if u are not one, i would get a 2nd opinion. blood is usually not a good sign.
Like who?Quote:

there was an article awhile back (outside mag i think) about ultra-marathoners (sick people who run like 100miles across the desert) which addressed this issue. apparently the constant motion and stress on their internal organs cause them to bleed. of course it doesnt happen to everyone so dont give too much weight to anecdotal evidence.Quote:

I used to be one of those sick souls and, perhaps, one day I shall be again.
So, they're attibuting the bleeding to insult of the bladder...I never would have thought of that. I'd always linked passing blood to kidney distress or damage. Interesting.
Tuckerman, how are things flowing?
Well I had test run on my urine and nothing unusual and things are flowing well. It was definitely blood I hate beets. I googled ‘blood in urine’ and found this
‘Strenuous exercise, especially running - Results from repeated jarring of the bladder’

my wife is not buying that I’m an athlete but, I’m going with the doc.
